Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

I am going to absolutely insist and demand that anyone and everyone who has a few minutes here and there watch Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. I realize I am a latecomer to this bandwagon, especially considering I like to think of myself as a Joss Whedon fan, but it's one of those things that I've always been meaning to get around to, and finally did. Casey and I watched it last night and today, and omg we laughed so hard. PLEASE Watch it when you get a chance, if you haven't already.

Here's what Wikipedia had to say about Dr. Horrible, for more info -
Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog is a 43-minute musical film, initially produced exclusively for Internet distribution. It tells the story of Dr. Horrible, the aspiring supervillain alter ego of Billy; Captain Hammer, his nemesis; and Penny, their mutual love interest.

The movie was written by writer/director Joss Whedon, his brothers Zack Whedon (a television writer) and Jed Whedon (a composer), and Jed's fiancée, actress Maurissa Tancharoen. The writing team penned the musical during the WGA writers' strike. The idea was to create something small and inexpensive, yet professionally done, in a way that would circumvent the issues that were being protested during the strike. On October 31, 2008, Time Magazine named it #15 in Time's Top 50 Inventions of 2008. It also recently won a People's Choice Award for "Favorite Online Sensation".

If you like comedy, musicals, Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion (dear god I love this man! Oh Captain Mal/Hammer! I've often told Casey I would leave him for Nathan Fillion. jk.), Joss Whedon, firefly, buffy, superheroes, or youtube, you'll like the humorous, humorous Dr. Horrible.
